Finnian's got work, so Reed's the one home to receive the baby his husband adopted. As he cuddles her for the first time, he thinks to himself, "Maybe this could be fun."

With Freetime newly installed, Michael gets to be the first one in the 'hood to have the cliche experience of tossing the pigskin around with your old man. Neither of them are very good at it.

Later, Emil expresses his worries that Michael won't be able to make enough money, seeing as how he has no career goals. Michael reassures his father that he'll find something to do with himself once he gets to college. "And shouldn't you be worrying about Lucas? He's like, a junior, and he still doesn't know what he's doing!"

As he puts his now toddler daughter to bed, Reed thinks to himself, "Yeah...I think I could get to like this."

Newly engaged couple Lucas Agnarsson and Emma Owens dance the night away. Harrison's the only one not engaged in the dorm, but I think that'll be changing soon.

What with him taking care of the house and her striving for the top of her career, Emil and Sophie don't get romantic moments like this very often. Maybe that's why they're always all over each other at family gatherings. It's kinda cute~

Emil randomly rolled up a want to invite his older brother Connor over. As I watched the two of them catch up, I started feeling a bit sad and nostalgic. This is likely Connor's last rotation--his life bar is almost at the end--and he was the first baby born in this 'hood. I watched these two grow up together.
Well, for now, he can tell his little brother about how big his granddaughter is getting.

At their wedding, Gabriel (Connor's younger son--at least he got to be there for that!) and his new wife Genesis are the only ones to eat in their new dining room. Guess they wanted a little privacy and a break from Gabriel's ever-growing family.

This is definitely one of my better pics. Little Nicole gets to be the first toddler in my game to use the long-awaited activity table, in the nursery her grandpa, great-uncles, daddy, and uncle started their lives in. And she loves it.

Connor survived another rotation, but his wife Cathy didn't. Here she is waving goodbye to her family...who sadly cannot see her and are more occupied with how stinky the dog is at the moment. They were all crying for the rest of the night, though.

The faces sims make while studying.

After three college-years of constantly rolling wants to ask someone on a date but never showing interest in anyone I suggested, Harrison's finally found the one for him. She's a dormie called Uma Raha (which sounds like actual Simlish, like her parents were the kind of people to name their child "Cherish" or "Tarmac") and the two of them are now engaged.

Students in this dorm are CONSTANTLY sneaking out and bringing home crap. That morning I noticed a beat up couch - in the street. This time I caught a guy come in the house with a little black garbage bag...he was so HAPPY! "Look guys, now we can BBQ inside!". And one guy may be thinking "Sweet!", and one in the back "It's gold!". I left it there. There may be a fire.

pants too tight?
He has NO chin, but somehow can smash food into his face...
He was abducted, and I guess the aliens tried to feed him - he came back with a bowl in his forehead. They also were unsuccessfull at getting him pregnant. But when the bowl was removed (it didn't even bleed!) it was still fresh and he ate it.
